The United Nations Office on Human Rights emphasizes that an unfair trial of prisoners of war is tantamount to war crimes.
“Such” trials “of prisoners of war are equated to a war crime. According to the Ukrainian command, all these men were members of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and in this case they cannot be considered mercenaries, ”said OHCHR spokeswoman Ravina Shamdasani.
The head of the British Foreign Office Liz Trass said that the verdict handed down in the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine to two British citizens who fought on the side of the Armed Forces is not legitimate.
